Happy 31st Birthday

Thursday was birthday celebration day with champagne and chocolate cake, so thank you to Betty and Narelle for making it happen.     The lucky door prize went to 'Little' Beryl,  who very generously donated it to Doreen and Gil for wagga inspiration.

And I would like to say thank you to everyone who 'took care of things' while I was away, including Ailsa and Alison for updating the blog.   I was able to 'check in' from far afield.

We received a fun message from Robyn J,  who is having a great trip across the country.    But we also heard that Adrienne is having a tough time health wise.

2013 Birthday Challenge - preparation for a 'Deck of Cards' display at our 2014 Quilt Show. On Thursday there was lots of laughs and moans as card selections were drawn: remember, if you haven't yet drawn your card, do so soon.   There are only a few rules, just have fun.  Any questions just ask Jenny and have a look at Jenny's book for inspiration.

Birthday quilt show and tell:   Our 30th Birthday quilt is now finished.    Haven't fabrics and styles changed since the 20th birthday quilt and this quilt ?

Bargain time at Material Obsession:  Kathy has lots of $10 fabrics from now to the end of the month - so check them out. And on Saturday MO had their Spring Fair with the shop expanding into the spring sunshine. I wasn't able to get there, but I hope lots of HHQ people were able to take advantage of the 20% off that Kathy was offering us.

Show and Tell:      Janet was our only 'show and tell' contributor this week .. its bright and it is pink - just what every 3-year old granddaughter wants!

 Have a good week everyone,  Thanks Iris
